This bill directs the Forest Service to release its reversionary interest in approximately 31.83 acres in the Black River State Forest if the State of Wisconsin offers to exchange those acres for approximately 37.27 acres of land owned by Deli, Inc., a sphagnum moss production business located in Millston, Wisconsin. The Forest Service's reversionary interest requires the state forest land to be used for public purposes. After the release, the Forest Service must provide a quitclaim deed of the release as expeditiously as practicable.
